I’ve got big plans for the garden this year. The weather hasn’t been quite so cooperative. We’ve finally had some decent weather and we got the space mowed, weeded and starts and seeds in the ground.
The plan for the year: parsnips (that have gone wild), spinach, peas, carrots, lettuce, delicata, sunburst, acorn and zucchini squash, tomatoes, tomatillos, beans and cucumbers are all ready to go. Wish us luck! When the adirondack chairs are put together and painted, it will be the perfect spot to sit and enjoy a summer beverage and the view.

It’s official….Trey’s got the T-shirt! He’ll be heading to Kindergarten at The Island School in the Fall. He’s only a LITTLE bit excited. We are excited for him to start this adventure.

Dee and I wanted so badly to see Bridesmaids in the theater (super funny!) and Nana and Papa stepped up to watch the boys. So funny, though, because when we got home…this is what we found! Nana did draw the line at having duct tape over her mouth.

Levi and Carlos ended their season on the Single A Cubs with some great fielding and strong bats. They came a long way from the first practice. Thanks, Coach Shane for teaching and supporting our boys.

So glad we got to celebrate Nana’s birthday with her, a few days late but with as much gusto as our crew has to put out there.
Hope it was a great one, we love you!

Congrats to Levi and Trey for earning their yellow belt! I wish I had the video camera rolling today when Trey got his belt, he ran toward me, fists pumping and hooting. He was so excited. Levi was more subdued, but very proud.
Way to go boys!

Carlos came back from his injured knee and was able to take (and pass) his test for his aikido orange stripe. It was a tough test, but he earned it!

The end of Kindergarten at The Island School means Author’s Night! Carlos read a story he had written about Sharks. He was so nervous, he’s a kind of shy guy when it comes to things like this, but he really did well. After it was over, he was so proud!

Sooo I have been trying for the last 3 days to post the video clip of Trey’s kindergarten performance…it is not meant to be. For some reason, it just won’t post. Anyhow, he rocked it!
